Increase in RPM and truck starts to move forward with brake applied!

2007 6.7L Ram3500 4X4 Dually
This is the second time in a little over a year where I was at a stop sign, when the RPM increased and the truck started to move forward while I had the brakes applied. Talked to the dealer and he says it's either the torque converter or a injector. Can anyone give me some assurance this sounds right what the dealer is saying, or provide another cause so I go to the dealer with some ideas/knowledge.

Thanks

No no codes. Dealer says their transmission "expert" has looked at it and its the torque converter. They are replacing it today. As its under warranty and my out of pocket is $100, we will see if this fixes the problem. Thanks for the response.
